Do they all play the tail-game? Where if you hold their tail they'll tug it free, then can't avoid putting it back again and will continue the game getting more an more irate until they stalk of.

Sorry Flautist. You really need those cookies! You know I have had about that kind of day today though. Yesterday was almost PURRFECT? but then it was my birthday.=) I dreaded turning 21 again! For some reason I thought I was getting old? Never mind the fact that I am a grandma and all I just never thought of myself that I would be this age? I should have went to the dentist and got some bling added to my already dazzling smile.=(#) hahaha I am sure that is what you were doing there. Never mind the darn crowns. Get that BLING instead!!! Hope you have a better day today!!

OH and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL THE CATS IN NOVEMBER from a Mousie....hehehehe

Oh yeah, I forgot -- I love the part about checking on the cat's state of mind "without disturbing it." When you just walk through the room, or breathe, you disturb MY cat. She wouldn't show her cards for all the tuna in the ocean -- that's howcome she lays on her tail all the time.

And in addition to having an irascible feline, it poured rain all day, buckets & buckets, and when I got out of my car to keep a dental appointment I got soaked -- not damp, not wettish, but sopping, dripping SOAKED -- and stepped right square onto a fish, yes a real, approx. 5-inch long FISH (!?!)(dead), then had to sit in the dentist's chair shaking and FREEZING to death while I was told I need about four g's worth of crowns replaced in the back, then home through a thunderstorm of Wagnerian proportions, only to find that for some damn reason I can send but not receive emails and this has been going on for a week and I don't even know how on earth to begin to fix it. Sniff. Whimper...

So sorry. Just snapped. Don't know what got into me. It won't happen again. I'll go now. Just leaving.

Three things:

1. Put one of these on any normal cat and it will never, ever purr again.

2. Your standard cat has a mood detector built right into it, growing out of one end: the tail. It doesn't matter what the cat SAYS, pay attention to the tail.

3. I never met a cat that wasn't perfectly capable -- indeed, often perfectly happy -- to bite the living sh*t out of you while purring violently.
